The United States' credibility is at an all-time low. So, this war is against the interest of the Untied States.

In the eighties, we asked for international coalition against terrorism after the Muslim Brotherhood crisis in Syria when they started killing, of course they were defeated at that time. We asked for the same thing. So, this is a long-term policy that we base our policy on for years now.

The worst loss for any country is not the infrastructure or the buildings or the material loss; actually, it's the human resources loss.

This war [in Syria] is going to support Al-Qaeda and the same people that killed Americans in the 11th of September. The second thing that we want to tell Congress, that they should ask and that what we expect them to ask this administration about the evidence that they have regarding the chemical story and allegations that they presented.

The first thing you have to learn is how to conduct dialogue and how to make it productive.

Opposition doesn't mean to take arms and kill people and destroy everything.
